The Front Panel:

1.POWER: This switch applies AC voltage to the amplifier. It is very important that this switch be turned on for at least 20 seconds prior to turning on the STANDBY switch. The switch is illuminated when the AC power is on.

2.STANDBY: This switch activates the amplifier and should only be turned on after the POWER switch has been on for a min- imum of 20 seconds. This switch is illumi- nated when the high voltage is being sup- plied to the unit.

NOTE: Do not turn the STANDBY switch on until the POWER switch has been on for a minimum of 20 sec- onds. This allows the tubes to prop- erly warm up prior ro the application of high voltage.

3.PRESENCE: Increase the level of upper harmonics with this control. The presence control allows a boost of up to 5dB at 10kHz.

4.EFFECTS LOOP PAD: This switch acti- vates a 12dB pad on the effects send sig- nal and corresponding gain recovery on the return. In the “out” position the signal is full strength which is best suited for line level rack mountable effects. With the switch “in” the signal is lower which is best suited for foot pedal type effects.

5.EFFECTS LOOP SWITCH: This switch controls the effects return signal of the effects loop. The loop is only active when the switch is pressed in. When a footswitch is used, this switch is disabled. The adja- cent yellow LED glows when the loop is in use.

6,7. REVERB: LEVEL 2, LEVEL 1: Adjust the amount of reverberation on each chan- nel with these controls: at the "0" position the signal is "dry" (no reverb). As you bring the control up, the amount of reverb increases.

Channel 2:

8.VOLUME: Set the output signal level of channel 2 with this control. At the "0" posi- tion (full left) very little or no signal will be heard; as you bring the control up (towards center) the output level of channel 2 increases. Use this control along with your guitar's volume and the channel 2 gain control (#12) to produce a wide variety of sounds.

9.LOW: Adjust the bottom end response with this control. The low control covers a range of 16dB at 100Hz. This sets the amount of bass heard (and felt) from the amp.

10.MID: Adjust the midrange response with this control. The mid control covers a range of 11dB at 650Hz. This controls the “voice” of your guitar.

11.HIGH: Adjust the high end response with this control. The high control covers a range of 16dB at 10kHz. This controls the “bite” of your guitar.

12.GAIN: Adjust the overdrive (distortion) level with this control. With the control towards “0” (to the left) the signal is rela- tively clean. As you bring the control towards “5” (center position) the distortion increases, along with the overall output level. Keep turning the control towards “10” and you’ll increase the distortion even more.

13.CHANNEL SELECT: Switch between channels with this push-button switch. The adjacent amber LED glows when channel

1is selected (switch "out"), the red LED glows when channel 2 is selected (switch "in"). When a footswitch is used for channel switching, this switch is disabled.

Channel 1:

14.LOW: Adjust the bottom end response with this control. The low control covers a range of 16dB at 100Hz. This sets the amount of bass heard (and felt) from the amp.

15.MID: Adjust the midrange response with this control. The mid control covers a range of 20dB at 300Hz. This controls the “voice” of your guitar.

16.HIGH: Adjust the high end response with this control. The high control covers a range of 10dB at 10kHz. This controls the “bite” of your guitar.

17.VOLUME: Set the output volume level of channel 1 with this control.

18.INPUT: Connect your guitar or wireless receiver into this standard 1/4" jack using a shielded instrument cable.
